What's this gab we're hearing about
Legends of Norrath, it isn't all about the loot cards? Heresy! We're still buying up those virtual packs
in hopes to score a rare loot card. Nevertheless, over on
IGN's EQ2 Vault we came across
this interview with Chuck Kallenbach, Game Designer on Legends of Norrath. Much is discussed gameplay wise about the insight behind the new Monk class, one that doesn't use weapons. One other topic covered includes the conundrum on scaling the game's complexity with new gameplay mechanics with the importance to not veer away from the game's intuitiveness and accessibility.
The
Oathbreaker set is
the latest expansion introduced last week from Sony Online Entertainment. It brings 250 new cards, fresh gameplay mechanics, a new challenging raid scenario, and the following classes: Monk, Coercer, Templar and Beastlord. Many classes from
EverQuest and
EverQuest II are now represented in the game. If you are interested learning how to play
Legends of Norrath but don't want to dump a bunch of cash you can
download the client and play through the tutorials and it won't cost a you a dime. Read |
